Apparently Dropbox is discontinuing public links in March and presumably will end hotlinking as well. I'm not entirely sure about that, but if it does happen, what works best for hosting non-image files in a way that can link them on MSPFA? Does Newgrounds work? Would it be better to just have people click on links to get to each flash page?

newgrounds works very well, since it hosts so many types of files. (gif, bmp, swf, html5, mp3 and 4, mov, wmv, etcetc.) there's also this website: www.fastswf.com/ for fast .swf file sharing, if it helps.

Would it be better to just have people click on links to get to each flash page? I think they're only discontinuing the public folder, but not public links. Public links can work from any folder, but they're in a different format. That basically means that some people might need to replace their links, but they won't need to change their hosts. If you've been using "copy Dropbox link" to get your links, you're all set.

How to do allow your adventure to be in the lining for the front page? Is there a list that you would need to sign on?

Guys I still need to know this. Someone help me out here. How big of an image are you using? I wouldn't recommend beyond the default max of 940px as it is If you already have the page with the larger image up, can you link me to it?

So, uh, I just saw this. Just figured I should bring it to your attention, I don't know if that's something you want on your site.

TIME TO MAKE BABY FANVENTURES NOT BE BABIES. Does this count as the GRAND BABY SHILL? Also, cool, first post is shilling. As I understand it, you need at least 10 pages before you can apply to become a full-fledged MSPFA ADULT and live in the BIG CITY with the rest of the head honchos. So i'm good. Mine: mspfanventures.com/?s=18022Bathroomstuck (Fourth Edition): mspfanventures.com/?s=18085Mine again, because I'm a fucko: mspfanventures.com/?s=18473Thanks nix!

I see you're doing AotW again! If you're still taking suggestions, a few adventures that I think are really good and could use more love are Octave and Freeroam, both are pretty unique and interesting Sburbventures.

Just a heads up, I check here often for adventure suggestions, I'm just too lazy to sign in. Every adventure is added to the list for AotW

I wanted to see what I could do with CSS on the site, So I'm making a CSS tutorial showing off all the neat things you can do with the site. It will be an adventure itself: mspfanventures.com/?s=18691It'll probably draw up some images too but for now theres an example css on there, removes the bottom adventure info example box, save/load game links, adds a header with a bottom border, and shifts the footer around.

You may have all the neat things, but you definitely don't have AAAAAAAALL of them, because the number of potential things you could do is almost endless

How many adventures are queued up for Adventure of the Week right now? It might be a good time to add Act Omega to the list. (Maybe even a bit later than the best time?) This would be a good image to use:

This would be a good image to use: I don't have a queue, just a list that I choose from. I can put it up this Monday if you'd like. "(Maybe even a bit later than the best time?)" To be fair, last time ya'll asked I said email me and I'll put it up. omegaupdate.freeforums.net/post/52185/threadNever got an email

Phew okie dokie I had no idea the mspa forums got taken down so I had to make a new user for this. Hi! Nix, what is your policy on nsfw-images (albiet a near-caliborn style drawing)? It's come to my attention that an adventure is posting pages of HS characters doing---not so SFW things and I was wondering if that was appropriate or if the author has to tag it or whatnot. Albeit to some it may be a joke and that's fine I just have a small concern for those who aren't 18+ and are seeing--these doodles. Or maybe if the author could place a NSFW warning on the title. Just wondering--bringing that up in case it's a concern. If not then alrighty! I also came here to promote some cool fanventures for AOTW's lineup/list/whatnot: - MazeBent (is a pretty cool fanventure and I'm really lovin their characters)
- Vast Error (is also another fanventure that is well written and I also love their characters!)
Anyways since I'm not active as much on the forums as I am on the site, I'd like to say the new layout is quite lovely! I'm really glad these fanventures get promoted each week, it's really nice! I'm seeing a lot of new content I wouldn't have if the AOTW wasn't in place. Thanks again for all of your hard work!

NSFW is fine on the site, I do prefer it be tagged but it's not entirely enforced at this point. This is something (probably all) Fandoms do, and since I would consider Homestuck to have some pretty adult content I would find it hypocritical of me to not allow it I don't think this is an extreme case in which I should be taking measures, I might skim through it a bit and add a NSFW tag on the front page if I should. I'm more offended that adventure's image resolutions are all over the place. I'm glad you enjoy the site, AotW seems to be well received I'm glad I started it Added those two to the list
